The First Traitor [Rebirth]

Yuan was stunned, the princess smiled: "Could it be that what my uncle said?"

"Princess, you!" Yuan stood up abruptly, not blushing, but a little lack of oxygen in the brain and blood flow.

"I see that when my uncle kissed the Pingyao girl that night, he didn't behave like this~~"

Yuan actually came back to his senses and looked at the princess with interest: "Did you see it?"

"uh-huh."

Yuan was not annoyed anymore: "I didn't expect my sister-in-law to be so interested in spying on other people's boudoir secret history."

"Isn't uncle also very concerned about the spring night in the bridal chamber between me and your elder brother?"

Yuan actually shook his head: "Who cares about you?"

The princess took a deep look at Yuan Jing: "Didn't my uncle just stand outside the door that night in the bridal chamber?"

"That's me..." Yuan actually wanted to defend herself subconsciously, but suddenly, she understood something, "You were wearing a red hijab in the room at the time, how did you know? Or were you not in the bridal chamber at all that night?" ?!"

"Uncle said he didn't care, but no, he cared again."

It turns out that the daughter-in-law of the princess has not yet been figured out, she is afraid that if she stays any longer, someone will find out, so she said: "It's getting late, I'll take my leave first."

Just when she turned around, the princess grabbed her belt, twisted her back in front of him, then tied the sachet on the side of Yuan Jing's belt, and finally threatened: "Since my uncle thinks that I gave it to you, so take it with you. If you lose it or don’t take it with you, I will tell Uncle Emperor that you have done something wrong to me.”

"When did I do something wrong to you, it's obviously you—" Yuan actually yelled in her heart, she frowned, and stared at the princess in confusion, confusion and dissatisfaction.But the Princess has a serious face, apparently not joking.

On the way back, Yuan actually walked and wondered when did she have contact with the princess?Even the name of the princess, she had only heard of it when the official media came to talk to Yuan Li about her marriage.This princess also said that she is a virtuous and virtuous woman. Can a virtuous and virtuous woman be so bold to belittle others?What's more, her identity at the moment is her brother-in-law!

It turned out that there was definitely a conspiracy in it.Now she no longer dares to easily trust the woman who offered to send her to her door, nor dare to give her sincerity easily, let alone think that there is any love at first sight.Didn't she believe that she was Pingyao's favorite and she loved Pingyao unreasonably because Pingyao threw himself into her arms?

Regardless of what the daughter-in-law of the princess is thinking, what kind of conspiracy is there, the most important concern is the stone dug out of Fengtian Pavilion.

Unexpectedly, as soon as the news spread that an unknown stone had been dug out of Fengtian Pavilion, the common people talked a lot, and some ministers also had reasons to oppose the construction of Fengtian Pavilion.For a while, rumors of various ominous stones spread everywhere, and the emperor was furious and asked Dali Temple to investigate thoroughly.

At this time, Yuan Ye stood up: "The emperor calm down."

"How do I appease my anger?!" The emperor was still in a bad mood, and almost vented his anger on Yuan Ye.

I saw Yuan Ye respectfully said: "Your Majesty, as far as I know, this kind of stone is not an ominous stone, and there is no ominous sign. It is just a very common gemstone in the area outside the pass. It is called obsidian. Temples outside the pass make Buddhist beads. This kind of stone is always used, and it has the auspicious meaning of praying to the Bodhisattva to protect the safety and prevent evil from invading."

Hearing this, the emperor calmed down some of his anger, but Zhang Songwei, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, sneered and said, "Master Yuan said that obsidian is obsidian?" , he has completely torn his face with Yuan Ye, now that he has the opportunity, how can he not take the opportunity to step on it a few times? !

Yuan Ye was not annoyed, nor was he in a hurry to refute, but summoned some people into the hall after receiving the emperor's order.Several eunuchs came in with several boxes, and the emperor asked curiously, "What are they holding?"

Yuan Ye opened the boxes one by one, and saw a string of black, crystal-clear Buddhist beads lying inside, as well as various accessories of mythical beasts, and some carved into small Buddha statues and various stone plaques, he calmly said : "This is obsidian, please take a look at it, Your Majesty."

The emperor left the dragon chair and walked in front of Yuan Ye. Before raising his hand, Zhang Songwei came over and said, "Your Majesty, please think twice! This kind of stone is so dark that it seems to have an evil spirit. The Emperor is a man of gold. If you are infested by evil spirits, what should you do?!"

The emperor hesitated for a moment, obviously listening.Yuan Ye glanced at Zhang Songwei, and said again: "Master Zhang's words are wrong. Thinking about the beginning of the Xia Dynasty in ancient times, it was based on the five virtues of yin and yang, with black as the main color, and the Qin and Han Dynasties used black as the national color Although the Xia, Shang, and Zhou dynasties and even the Qin and Han Dynasties have become history, Zhou rituals have always influenced the world, and even today, our dynasty still uses Zhou rituals to establish rules. If so, why did the black color come from the saying that it is an ominous color?"

The emperor obviously didn't expect Yuan Ye to be so eloquent, so he asked the Ministry of Rites who was in charge of etiquette and law about it, but the Ministry of Rites did not dare to take sides and could only say that it was true.Then the emperor smiled and played with a string of Buddhist beads, saying: "It's really a beautiful gem."

"Your Majesty, obsidian has auspicious and auspicious meanings. Why don't you carve this obsidian gifted by heaven into a Buddha statue and enshrine it in Fengtian Pavilion?" Yuan Ye suggested, and the emperor's eyes flickered.

There were also voices of opposition, and the emperor said: "This is a reward from the heavens. I have no reason not to want it. This thing is very beautiful, and it is not bad to reward those who have meritorious service. Yuan Aiqing, you have made great contributions. What do you want?" Just tell me it is."

Yuan Ye smiled slightly: "I don't dare to claim meritorious service, but the emperor said that this thing will be rewarded to those who have meritorious service. That minister dared to ask for two pieces of Buddha statues as auspicious gifts for my two children. You can be on the list if you pass the exam!"

"Hahaha, why don't you want to win the first prize?" the emperor asked with a smile.

"Whether they can win the first prize depends on how much real talent they have. There are so many talented people in the world, and I don't dare to expect them to be the first prize. Just being on the list is enough!"

"Okay! But it seems that I am stingy for just one gem, and I will reward you with ten acres of fertile land!"

"Thank you Lord Ron!"

Yuan Ye's move not only blocked many opposing voices for the emperor, but also proved his loyalty with practical actions. For the sake of the emperor, the emperor liked this sensible Minister of the Ministry of Industry more and more.

As soon as Yuan Ye returned to the mansion and saw Yuan Jing, he told her about what happened in the court hall, and said admiringly: "Jing'er, your idea is really good!"

Yuan actually smiled, and said in a low voice: "Father, although the matter is over like this, but who is behind this matter has not been found out yet!"

"Who do you think it is?"

Yuan actually had an idea in his heart, but he was not sure, so he could only shake his head: "On the surface, those who oppose the construction of Fengtian Pavilion are the most suspicious, but the matter is not that simple. This matter is like, someone is here, As a warning to Dad."

Yuan Ye closed his eyelids for a while, and when he opened them, his eyes became quite serious: "Father thinks so too."

"There are only a few people who have the ability to bury such a large stone in the heavily guarded Fengtian Pavilion without anyone noticing. The prince, King Qi, and—the emperor."

Yuan Ye pursed his lips, but Yuan actually knew that he had actually guessed it, she said: "Father, the emperor has started beating you, now, do you still dare to stand in line with King Qi?"

The prince was established by the emperor, so the emperor naturally favored the prince, and Yuan Ye stood in line with the king of Qi, fueling the arrogance of the king of Qi to suppress the prince, how could the emperor be happy?But he also didn't want the prince to sit on the throne, so that all the officials forgot about him as an old emperor and rushed to curry favor with the new emperor. That's why he gave the princes the opportunity to develop their power to beat the prince.

Although the old emperor is old, the emperor's intentions are still there. Apart from disliking Yuan Ye's close personal relationship with King Qi, he is also afraid that King Qi will use Yuan Ye to tamper with Fengtian Pavilion, so he uses this as a test Let's take a look at Yuan Ye's loyalty.If Yuan Ye passed, then he could trust him very much; if he failed, then he would not do anything to Yuan Ye, at most he would not entrust him with important tasks.

"Father will figure it out, you go back to your room to study first!"

It turned out that her father was a cautious person, but the emperor beat him, so he was naturally afraid and reduced his contacts with King Qi.

Yuan Ye looked at Yuan Jing's leaving back, feeling a little heavy.Since Yuan Jing was shot and woke up, her temperament has indeed changed drastically. Yuan Jing has been smart since she was a child, just like her mother before she got sick.Yuan was not close to him before, so even if he knew what he was doing, he would not interfere.But now, Yuan Jing was helping him, but he hesitated, because Yuan Jing was too smart, the so-called Huiji would be hurt, and he was afraid that something would happen to her.

In the room, Yuan unexpectedly recalled what Yuan Ye had mentioned, Zhang Songwei jumped out to oppose Yuan Ye, she stroked the scar on her left thigh, and then remembered Zhang Jinhou's ugly face, her face turned gloomy in vain: "I should give it to you!" Some pain tasted."

When he had an idea in his heart, Yuan actually went to implement it immediately.She dug out all her savings, and pawned some treasures that Yuan Ye gave her last time, in exchange for enough money.Taking advantage of Hua Rui's inattention, she disguised herself and went out.

She remembered that in her previous life, she had heard of a Jianghu organization that was different from Yingyue Tower. There were many capable people and strangers in it, but these talented people and strangers were only in the organization by name. As long as they had money, they could make a move. And the organization only charges [-]% of the fee.

It is said that it is an organization, but it is actually just a restaurant. Almost all big cities have such a restaurant, and the capital is naturally no exception.On the surface, this restaurant is engaged in wine trading, but in fact only the employer and the organization's name can enter the other door of the restaurant.

Just write the employer's requirements, bounty, and contact location on a piece of paper and post it on the bulletin board, and these people will choose tasks according to their wishes.The employer has to pay half of the deposit first, and hand over the remaining silver taels to the employee after the job is completed. If the employer is concerned about personal safety, he can choose not to show up, and hand over the silver taels to the restaurant after the job is done.

Yuan didn't know whether these people were trustworthy, but she had never heard of anyone who leaked secrets in her previous life, so she chose to take the risk of trusting them once.However, she still dressed herself up like a beggar and appeared in the restaurant, and handed her paper to the shopkeeper of the restaurant. The shopkeeper saw it and understood: "For a pot of white wine, pay half of the price first, and pick it up in three days."

Baijiu is the most common and cheapest wine among all the wines, indicating that this task is relatively simple.But Yuan didn't want them to pay no attention and send useless people over, so he said: "Wine, pay in full, pick it up in three days!"

The shopkeeper looked at Yuan Jing in surprise, but how could he not do this kind of business? !It's done right away.
